This is my tweeking of the Forest Witch background originally posted on the official forums. The idea here is that I'm considering them as a genuine threat rather than irritating bandits. It also deals with my idea of how the Yozis are going to escape their prison.
First of all I looked to their aspect that most brought them into contact with other groups, namely the tithe now in the Dragon-Blooded book it says minor artefacts or other sources of Essence. What if in order to keep the harmony and mirror of perfection, the Sea of Mind needed living sacrifices (the more essence the better)
Anyway the Sea, the Mist and the Forest aren’t dependant on the Dragon-Blooded who are seen more as it’s willing agents. However it’s capricious nature (it’s all one entity) means that it’s not always happy with the Forest Witches and will occasionally turn one into Numina so as to better serve it.
Numina are very much like Akuma only they are created by the pursuit of perfection rather than a direct oath of loyalty. In my version they were all turned sort of against their will like Anja was in that they didn’t necessarily want it but their actions and opinions of themselves suggested they did.
The final changed aspect is that Asiluth Eternal isn’t a holiday destination so much as it calls the Forest Witches to it and tests them spiritually with it's perfected version of Creation rather than serving as the Forest Witch “Holo Deck”
Finally as to what the Sea of Mind, the Nameless Mist and the Forest really are- it’s Cytherea or part of her at least. I’ve not ironed out the specifics but I’m thinking that it’s part of her which never actually left and was thus never subject to the binding and the Primordial’s consciousness moved over to it.
This is sort of tied to the Ebon Dragon’s escape plan since it proved to him that only the Primordial bodies were bound rather than their consciousness hence the substantial presence of the Black Scale Embassy. Ebon Dragon’s agents are watching to ensure that switching bodies is a prudent move for their master to take.
